All files of android project got corrupted

Question

When I opened my previous android project on android studio after 15 days. I found that files had been corrupted.There was only a message that "File was loaded in wrong encoding - 'UTF-8'". Is it possible to recover the project files?

Here is a screenshot:

Are you using Windows and it has crashed previously? Then say goodbye to your code. I've experienced the same problem months ago and losing 2 weeks of codes because of it. Moral of the story: always backup your code with Version control systems. — ישו אוהב אותך, Dec 02 '17 at 07:49
@ישואוהבאותך Yes I am working on window 10 but It haven't crashed yet. I am also wondering why my code has got corrupt. One of the interesting thing only this project got corrupted others are safe — Vipendra Singh, Dec 02 '17 at 08:37
Well, it's because Windows 10 filesystem is not reliable. You can try to fix it using `chkdsk` command. But please backup your data first. — ישו אוהב אותך, Dec 02 '17 at 08:44

Go to File -> Settings -> File Types. Find the file type that you have linked the .ttf files to

Deactivate it with the red minus sign on the right hand side. The next time you'll try to import a .ttf file in Android Studios there will be a popup menu where:

You can select Android Studios to read the .ttf files as a certain filetype You can select the program that normally reads .ttf on your computer (The button on the bottom of the menu).

Hope this helps!
